Fun fact: The Old City Hall Station where Zohran Mamdani will swear his oath as Mayor of New York City closed on December 31, 1945, exactly 80 years ago tonight. The mayor then was none other than Fiorello La Guardia. The symbolism of this moment is surreal.

Something that still deeply depresses me is how Yemen's prime minister and almost the whole civilian cabinet was murdered by Israel last August and virtually no one acknowledged it as anything out of the ordinary.

I wrote for @thenation about Maduro and the death of Soleimani, and how the West's indifference to the killing of a sovereign state's military commander outside of war paved the way for indifference to the abduction of a sovereign state's president.thenation.com/article/world/…

I cannot believe people in movement spaces looked me dead in the eye and asked why I’m still so pressed about covid, and we now have evidence that *at least* 100,000 people have been dying from it every single year. and every year other airborne pathogens are doing more damage

Trump didn't just bomb Nigeria on Christmas, he also bombed Somalia. But of course there was no media coverage. AFRICOM hasn't answered me in a while but by my count, we are up to at least 127 US airstrikes in Somalia this year, more than double the previous annual record of 63.

Transportation is one of the biggest difficulties in daily life in Gaza. No where is this more true than in the upper Northern regions where roads are destroyed and fuel is scarce. chuffed.org/project/help-u…. Hearing this need, Translating Falasteen (@translatingpal) x The Sameer Project launched a bus route from Beit Lahia to Gaza City and back. Listen to the testimonies from our very first passengers yesterday, December 27. Our bus transportation is for free, while the local municipality charges 10 shekels (in change only which many people don’t have) as fair, each way. Our bus runs from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm bringing anyone who needs to get into Gaza City - to shop for food, to visit doctors, to work. You can see on the passengers faces just how big of a relief this new service is! The daily operations cost around $310 after 15% cash commission and on December 27th we served 250 people with transport. Help us maintain this much needed service by donating to the North Campaign link. Other ways to donate include: paypal.me/mahertali (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "North aid") account.venmo.com/u/Maher-Ali (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "North aid")

Since it’s been decided to let measles return, you should know that of all the viruses transmitted via exhaled aerosol, measles is believed to be one of the most stable in the air. Along with masking, this makes ventilation and filtration incredibly important.

The American Journal of Managed Care published a list of its 5 most read articles of 2025. “5 Things to Know About LongCOVID” was second, highlighting that in 5+ years, LongCOVID amounts to more than $3.7 Trillion in healthcare spending and decreased work productivity combined.

The $2.1 billion will come from a tax capture on the entertainment district to be built with the stadium. But because—according to the consensus of nearly all economists who work on local development subsidies—these districts overwhelmingly just shift spending around from other parts of the metro rather than inducing new spending or attracting out-of-region visitors, every other place in Kansas City that might have built housing, retail, or hotels ends up indirectly contributing to the stadium subsidy. We all lose from this proposal. There’s no opting out.

Did you know that Chevron is still allowed to operate in Venezuela, despite all the US sanctions and blockade? And Chevron pays no tax or royalties to Venezuela! It refines about a third of Venezuelan oil and ships them to the US. US foreign policy is like the Mafia.🤨
